2019 Valentine’s Day in Ann Arbor

In the lead up to Valentine’s Day, we always see a major spike in searches for our romantic whirlpool rooms. We recommend booking your stay sooner than later because those rooms can sell out pretty fast this time of year. We also have a Romance package that is very popular for Valentine’s Day getaways. This package includes a bottle of champagne, roses, and chocolate covered strawberries.

Ann Arbor for the Holidays – Special Hotel Packages

A large part of the Ann Arbor population leaves the city for the holidays. Students return home to spend time with their families, making Ann Arbor a bit cozier as the cold settles into the city. Whether you’re coming into town to visit family for the holidays or you’re a townie family who needs a little staycation, we’ve created a couple packages for the season.

For those who prefer to stay warm with a little physical activity, we have the skate and stay package, which includes a one hour open skate and hot chocolate with a keepsake mug. This package is not available on Mondays.

For those who prefer a cozier option, we have started family movie night on Saturday nights, which include pizza, pop, and popcorn.
